Hi Chas,
Glad to see that there will be some time spent expanding and refining
the Lift documentation, good docs are definitely the sign of a well
run project. I am one of those lurkers you speak about, so I thought
I'd speak up and give my input.
I would like to see explanations on creating var

I have to agree with Richard on having soup-to-nuts examples on real-
world/pragmatic implementations of Scala/Lift.
We're all here because we 'believe' in Scala and Lift, it's just that
those who are just starting (like me and Richard) would like to see
examples on how to implement Scala/Lift in
Examples, examples, examples, including scala.
The scala-lang site is a bit daunting. I think you'll get more
traction on Lift if you help people to get to grips with scala as well
as lift. I have no idea whether I'm a typical newcomer, but I have
come from Java (previously other things going bac
James,
This looks more like about $20, but I'm not complaining. Your thoughts
mirror mine in many ways. #4 is a very good idea. Even just a list of
what is needed. Folks could add to a documentation wishlist, and then
anyone who thought he or she could tackle an item could just do it.
I'm gla
Tom,
Thanks for this link! The Second Life wiki is very interesting, and
makes it obvious that one can do a lot with MediaWiki. I'll definitely
spend some time exploring it.

Hello Charles,
This is good news. I'm sorry I didn't see your initial email going out, but
I would guess it is better late than never. I think the first thing that
needs to be done is to clearly define what is to be documented in the wiki
and where. Here is my 2 cents:
1. There should be a
Hello List!
I might as well share my thoughts about docs.
I think as with Scala and Lift you should try to beat the best that is out
there. And from all the user made language/API/framework wikis I have seen
the one from a now pretty unpopular game is by far the best:

Formalities or content?
http://wiki.liftweb.net/index.php/Maven_Mini_Guide
must be improved. For people not accustomed to maven it is very hard
to grasp the versions/release/snapshot/pom dependencies.
Various articles use various version numbers when building examples.
I, personally, got lost.
Thanks! Will do!

Thanks, Axel. Will take this under consideration.

Richard, its a shame you feel like that. Your comments about examples are
noted, however you must bear in mind that both scala and lift are young
(relatively speaking) and a lot of the applications that are out there, are
behind corporate firewalls (including mine) - so don't be fooled into

Wow! Too lazy to register?! IMO, registration is a one-time event and is
needed to combat spam / bot activity. Rather than having a system where
people complain / suggest alterations, we prefer people to just get on and
change them... Power to the people!

My personal view is that a worked example of a fully featured
eCommerce type site would be most useful. Even something as simple as
a cut down Amazon style store with inventory management would be a
great start. That would be a useful foundation for the rest of Lift's
features (add-ons such as onl

Hello Charles,
I know I'm a bit late for your request to consolidate the lift wiki.
Anyway:
It's really puzzling to me to get the version numbers right, when creating a new
archetype with maven.
The Maven mini guide at http://wiki.liftweb.net/index.php/Maven_Mini_Guide
is not so helpful.
